Cover Up
Cover Up drops you straight into the life of Leia Alexander as she celebrates her MBA graduation and then gets swept into a string of unexpected turns. The story jumps from a warm family celebration to a frightening street robbery to ambitious corporate maneuvering. Leia’s world opens up fast as her boss Michael earns a major promotion and pulls her into the center of international business challenges, leadership conflicts, and hidden agendas brewing across Europe. The book mixes personal growth, workplace drama, and hints of deeper trouble forming in the background. It feels like the start of a much bigger arc that will follow Leia as she steps into a dangerous and high-pressure new role.
As I read, I found myself drawn to Leia’s mix of confidence and self-doubt. Her reactions felt real. I liked how she tries to hold things together even when life comes at her sideways. The father-daughter moments were especially touching and grounded the story. I smiled more than once because those scenes carried genuine warmth. At the same time, the writing sometimes jumped quickly between plotlines. I occasionally wanted the story to breathe a little more before moving on to the next twist. Still, the emotional beats landed for me. I felt Leia’s panic after the robbery and her shock when Michael threw the huge job at her. Those moments kept me hooked.
The corporate world sections carried a different energy. Michael’s promotion, the tense boardroom talks, and the brewing resentment from Maximilian and Giovanni added a sharp edge to the narrative. I liked the behind-the-curtain feel. It made the story bigger and hinted at serious trouble coming. At times, the explanations of the company structure and strategy felt a little heavy for me. Even so, the ideas underneath were strong. The tension between loyalty, ambition, and power played out in a way that felt believable. The long backstory on Maximilian surprised me, but it helped me understand why he acts the way he does. His resentment and pride gave the plot a solid antagonist vibe.
I came away enjoying the mix of heart and suspense. The story sets up a world filled with family love, personal ambition, corporate danger, and a sense that something much larger is about to ignite. I would recommend this book to readers who enjoy character-driven corporate thrillers, stories about professional growth, and plots that slowly build toward global stakes. It is a good fit for anyone who likes emotional storytelling blended with rising suspense and wants to follow a young woman stepping into the toughest challenge of her life.

The Fugitive’s Trail
In the lobby of a prestigious Wall Street investment firm, one man is dead and another seriously injured. The man accused of the crime now a fugitive.
When the Director of the FBI personally orders Special Agent Sean Kruger to New York City to find the fugitive, Kruger questions the reason. Told to shut up and do his job, he starts looking into the case. What he finds is troubling. Eye-witness accounts seem contrived with little variance between individual testimonies. The more he hears, the more he feels someone is manipulating the story.
As the investigation unfolds, he discovers the only information known about the fugitive is a HR file from a former employer. Public records of the man do not exist.
The fugitive is a ghost. A ghost who has disappeared.
When Kruger unearths information the investment firm lied about the incident in the lobby, he learns there is a possibility the fugitive was defending himself. He also discovers another individual is searching for the fugitive. An individual who has no interest in allowing the truth to be discovered.
When the cat and mouse game turns lethal, Kruger must use all of his skills and experience to find the truth, protect the fugitive, and ultimately stay alive.
